Our individual voices are too quiet to be heard, but collectively we can shout loud enough to drown out this tide of abuse against us. Disability Hate Crime, lack of full legal protection, people in care homes costing too much to be let out and not one political party willing to fight for us.

Thankyou, great poem by the way, do you feature on any other blogs? You seem to not have posted in a while :(

@ Anonymous 18 February 2013 18:07: Mobility scooters are exempt from vehicle tax, but if you have a class 3 scooter or powered wheelchair (capable of speeds greater than 4MPH up to 8MPH) then it should be registered with the DVLA. Also, while insurance for such vehicles isn't mandatory, it is recommended nevertheless. After all, accidents can happen no matter how careful someone is.
